The Springfield Republican of yesterday said ''Che old Newgate prison at East Granby, Conn.,
 has been visited during the season by from 300 tc 2000 people. They go there from this city, from Hartford and from many of the surrounding towns. The spot, on a high hill, commands a fine
 sweep of scenery, and the ruins of the prison are full of interest with the subterranean shafts and the dungeons and cells. Nothing has prevented g
 much larger visiting of the place except the lack o
 accommodation. No adequate provision is made
 for entertaining people there.''
